Our Story

Nadine and I are High School sweethearts, met in 10th grade, fell in love, had a falling out and started dating again.  We have been married for more than 40 years, have two great kids and five grandkids.  John grew up on Louis Lamour novels and always wanted to be a cowboy when he grew up and convinced Nadine how much fun it would be.  We bought a ranch close to our children (great move as we get to see the Grandchildren often) and started out raising commercial cattle.  We were fascinated by the smaller breeds of cattle that were more people friendly, more geared for the smaller ranch such as we have and finished well on grass as opposed to grain.  The Lowline breed fit this to a T. 

We expanded our interests in Lowlines and are now in full swing establishing our quality herd.  We have purchased some excellent Seedstock which have done very well in the shows.  Click on “Our Cattle” tab for a description of our excellent bulls and some of their ladyfriends.  We have always been health conscious and are raising all natural grassfed beef now.  We raise most of the feed for our animals, feeding them a mixture of grasses including oat, alfalfa, perennial rye, orchard, and fescue.  Our selection of grasses is totally driven by the endproduct i.e. the quality and taste of our beef.  At no time do we administer any hormones or antibiotics.  We do not feed any animal byproducts or grain to our beeves.  We strive for the healthiest, highest quality, best tasting beef we are able to produce.  Our positive customer feedback has provided us with wonderful encouragement that makes our job worth doing.  We intend to become a premier supplier of all natural grassfed beef for our community.
